Abstract: Two novel nano-materials M3SiW9 (M=Cu(Ⅱ), Co(Ⅱ)) based on polyoxometalate have been successfully synthesized by chemical precipitation method using trivacant Keggin-type silicotungstate as precursor. Cu3SiW9 exhibited extremely rare nanowhisker morphology in polyoxometalate-based nano-materials and Co3SiW9 simultaneously showed uniform nanosphere morphology. Control experiments were implemented to indicate the morphologies of M3SiW9 could be tuned by doping different transition metals. Furthermore, fluorescein sodium was employed as dopant to endow nanowhiskers with an emission peak at 510 nm. Moreover, the nanowhiskers were also used as carriers to combine with CdS quantum dots to improve the photocatalytic property. The results show that when the mass ratio of Cu3SiW9 to CdS was 1:1, the hydrogen production efficiency of the composite was about 10 times that of pure CdS quantum dots. This also confirms that the presence of polyoxometalate can effectively inhibit the recombination of CdS quantum dot photogenerated electrons and holes, thereby greatly improving the efficiency of photolysis of water to produce hydrogen. |
